AUSTRALIANA ABORIGINAL
Towards an understanding of why the Aboriginal people of Arnhem Land face the greatest crisis in health and education since European contact. ‘Why Warriors Lie Down and Die’ is essential reading for anyone interested in indigenous peoples. It provides hope and new direction for those searching for the answers as to why “the problems”” seems to persist in Aboriginal communities. It also offers insights for those who want a greater understanding of the issues involved in achieving true reconciliation. And provides a way forward for anyone working with Indigenous people in Australian. International groups are showing a growing interest in the insights the book provides into the challenges that occur across the cultural divide for all colonised people groups.””
